Last Trip to Barsoom: Join us for closing night of the John Carter run at El Capitan in Hollywood

Some members of the Facebook Group: “Take me back to Barsoom! I want John Carter to have a sequel!” have decided that there is no place else they want to be next Thursday night, April 19, other than at the El Capitan in Hollywood to see the last theatrical showing of John Carter at Disney’s Flagship theater. We will be announcing more about this in coming days and weeks but here is our fantasy — that for the last show of the film, we bring in a crowd big enough to make a statement. Plus, quite honestly, this has been something of an emotional ride on many levels — so why not see John Carter off in style with others who either waited half a lifetime for this — or , alternatively, discovered Barsoom for the first time thanks to this film? One thing for sure — it’ll be a great group of people who show up, big or small, and it will be a meaningful moment.

So…..will you pledge your metal to ours and get down there with us for one last trip to Barsoom?

An important message to all John Carter fans: this might be the last weekend for this movie in the theaters! If you’ve already seen it 3 times, the fourth viewing is much better. And believe me, the fifth is even better than the fourth!

Let’s not give up this fight — especially while our captivating Barsoom is still being shown on the big screen.

Come on, everybody — wherever you are — let’s all go to one last viewing! Let’s make a statement — together!
